Kenny Pickett’s life is about to drastically change. But luckily, he’ll have fiancee, Amy Paternoster, will be with him through it all.

Unsurprisingly, Pickett was the first quarterback taken in this week’s NFL Draft. However, it was a little bit surprising that he fell all the way to the Steelers.

Shortly after the pick was announced, the video of Kenny Pickett celebrating with his parents and Amy went viral.

On Friday night, Amy Paternoster took to Instagram to send a message to Kenny Pickett.

“Can’t wait to watch you in action!!” she said in the caption of a photoshopped picture that showed Pickett in a Steelers jersey.
